Sugar Cookies

(this is a LARGE scale recipe. Half it)
Ingredients:

• 3 cups butter
• 8 eggs
• 4 cups sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla or lemon extract
• 10 cups flour
• 4 tsp. baking soda
• 1 TBS. salt

Cream butter, eggs, sugar and vanilla well. In separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add dry mixture to creamed mixture. Mix well. Chill for 1 hour. Roll dough out 1/4 inch thick. Cut out cookies with cookie cutters. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-9 minutes. Makes 5 dozen LARGE (5-6 inches across) cookies.

These make really soft chewy cookies! I love my other sugar cookie recipe, but this tops it FOR SURE!
